Quiet Hours

These walls are thin, I hear every fight, I hear every orgasm
I don’t know where you been, but I know what’s going on upstairs
And I don’t know you at all, but I guess everything’s ok
When I hear,
“Baby don’t stop!
Baby don’t stop!
Baby yeah yeah yeah!”
I’m not gonna ask, I won’t interfere, I won’t make it complicated
I’m not part of your life, I’m just an apartment number
And I don’t owe you a thing, but I know what I wanna do
When I hear,
“Baby please stop!
Baby please stop!
Baby no no no!”
It’s quiet now, it’s quiet now, but I can’t sleep
Cause I know how it felt to wonder if the neighbors hear me
I’m all alone, I wonder if you’d like it that way
I’m all alone, I’m all alone, cause it’s a little safer that way
These walls are thin, I hear little feet, I hear little temper tantrums
I don’t mind if I do, I’ve got kids of my own
But I don’t know what to do, I don’t know who to call
When I hear,
“Mommy please stop!
Mommy please stop!
Mommy no no no!”
It’s quiet now
It’s quiet now

Train to San Francisco

Now it's time to tell the tale
Of my attempt to escape from jail
With the children of the theater
I learned how to ride the rails
But it was there that I broke your heart
Many years before we chose to part
Riding high in the loft on the train to San Francisco
Just one step from a broken home
Where a kid can be all alone
Maybe it's a kind of freedom
All you gotta do is pick up the phone
But on that stretch of 101
Where my mother became my son
I could have been riding on that train to San Francisco
Well they'll teach you how to drive
And they'll bury your kids alive
There's no mercy in that temple
Where only the dead survive
There's a tree somewhere that's tall
And it gives no shade at all
There's a road that belongs to God
Where the missionaries crawl
And all the grass on the hills turns brown
In that lonely college town
With a book full of faces and a train to San Francisco
